Meanwhile, I have research the issue and found only a couple of messages relating to the same subject. I am still unable to format and mount my DVD-RAM Is there any assistance on this subject? snip of orignal questions ============================== I am having a little problem here. I have installed a Toshiba DVD-RAM device. I have placed a CD in the tray (write protect - off). I am trying to get this device to format and mount. Below is a list of the commands I used, below that are the results (screen writes) that I see, and below that are some snips from the tail of the dmesg log. Before I completed these steps, /stand/sysinstall would start up and then drop to the command line. After I completed the steps below, /stand/sysinstall would start (VERY long wait time), but did not see the ad0 Any ideas????
